Tips for picking oranges, so the ones you choose taste better

They all say that in golden autumn September, when talking about September, the fruit that absolutely cannot be missing is probably oranges! Friends who often visit the market will easily notice that the peak season for oranges has already arrived! The good news for friends who love eating oranges is coming soon! So how do you pick oranges so they taste good?

1. Touch them

When choosing oranges, you usually pick them yourself, so you will definitely touch them, but how should you touch them to pick out delicious oranges? This comes down to testing the firmness of the orange. When choosing oranges, pay attention: do not pick oranges that are too soft. This kind of orange may have been stored too long or may already be overripe; the main issue is that it is no longer fresh, which greatly affects the taste.

Oranges that are too hard either have peel that is too thick or are not fully ripe. This kind of orange will be very sour and astringent, and if you buy it and take it home, all you will taste is bitterness!

2. Look at them

Besides checking whether the orange's appearance is intact, whether it is glossy, and whether it looks fresh, there is also a key part: the bottom of the orange. The bottom of a female orange is sunken inward, and the very center is a black small circle shape. When choosing, try to pick this kind of orange; it will taste much better than a male orange~

There is also another place you should look at carefully when buying oranges, and that is the bottom of the orange, the part similar to our belly button. If you want a delicious orange, choose one where the circle at the navel position is a bit larger; this kind of orange will taste a bit better. This principle is the same as with navel oranges! The reason navel oranges are called navel oranges is that the circle at their navel position is relatively large, so they taste good!

Surely some friends will ask, then what exactly is bad about male oranges? That is because male oranges have a greater chance of having thick peel and being sour and astringent, which affects the orange's taste. When we usually like eating oranges, is it not because we want to eat a sweet-and-sour, tasty fruit? So when choosing, try as much as possible to pick female oranges.
